‘Bold and the Beautiful’: Did Sheila Lie to Jack Years Ago – Is Finn Really His Son?
Bold and the Beautiful spoilers suggest Sheila Carter (Kimberlin Brown) may have lied to Jack Finnegan (Ted King), about John Finnegan (Tanner Novlan), so maybe Finn isn’t his bio-son. Everyone is taking Sheila’s word for this on the CBS soap. But DNA wasn’t in widespread use decades ago when Finn was presented as Jack’s son.
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: No One Questions Sheila Carter
Even if by chance a DNA test was done back then, it doesn’t mean much. Well, not on Bold and the Beautiful anyway. The soap already played out a few storylines in which other characters’ DNA test results were switched. So, this is also a possibility. Especially since no one can say with scientific evidence in hand that Jack Finnegan is the real dad of John Finnegan.
When wayward mom Sheila Carter showed up on The Bold and the Beautiful again, she faced a small crowd at Finn and Steffy Forrester’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) wedding. Immediately those who knew her from the past were worried. Finn announced that she’s his bio-mother on B&B. Then, the accusations flew about John Finnegan’s birth mother, as discussed in a previous Soap Dirt article.
B&B Spoilers: Jack Finnegan Believes John Finnegan Is His Son
Bold and the Beautiful had a few guests at the wedding questioning this maternity claim. Nobody believed Sheila Carter at first. But then Jack Finnegan backed her up on this. He told everyone at the wedding reception that Sheila’s indeed telling the truth about being Finn’s birth mother.
So, then all the questions stopped after Jack agreed Sheila’s statement was fact. But does he know for certain? Now, those in Finn’s circle believe that he is Sheila’s birth son and they do so without any proof. Now, the truth came out that Jack is the other birth parent of John Finnegan on Bold and the Beautiful.

Again, he’s taking Sheila’s word — as is everyone else including Finn and Li Finnegan (Naomi Matsuda). So far, Sheila Carter has held it together pretty well in comparison to her previous Bold and the Beautiful dirty deeds. But in the past, Sheila stopped at nothing to get her way. Is she doing so again?
Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers: Did Jack Fall for Cynical Deed in the Past?
B&B clues recently dropped about her past relationship with Jack. She held Jack Finnegan’s hand over lunch on a Bold and the Beautiful episode and talked about how close they were years ago. But, who’s to say that she didn’t cook up a lie back then trying to snag a married man? Maybe she wasn’t willing to let Jack go, so she said he fathered her son.
The full extent of Sheila Carter’s craziness has not shown its awful face this time around on Bold and the Beautiful. But she was capable of many things back in her day. So, you never know — John Finnegan might not even be her son. It’s remotely possible that John Finnegan came from somewhere else.
B&B Spoilers: Sheila’s Origin Story with Finn Questioned?
There could be a truly devious backstory for Finn. First, Sheila might have had another lover but told Jack that he got her pregnant. Or, going to extremes, she could have faked a pregnancy in an attempt to lure him from his wife Li. It’s not above the B&B psycho to pass off a stolen infant as their son.
She demonstrated some bad behaviors in the past on Bold and the Beautiful. If she wanted Jack, she would have pulled out every devious trick she knows. This is one possibility for more Finn-related drama. Now that the big reveal of the bio-dad is complete, B&B may deepen Sheila Carter’s devious plot.
Needless to say, whatever she tried didn’t work as Jack Finnegan spent the last few decades happily married to Li raising an “adoptive” son together. But if he’s not John Finnegan’s DNA daddy, the truth will eventually come out on The Bold and the Beautiful on CBS daytime.
